Delightful stone house with potential gîte and separate studio

This lovely stone house was renovated in about 2015 – works included the installation of wood framed double glazed windows, underfloor heating in the kitchen, a new roof, shower room, etc.  The farmhouse kitchen has a lovely Esse wood burning cooker (similar to a Rayburn). There is the option to renovate the attached building into a gîte or further accommodation for the main house.  There is a useful wooden chalet/studio in the rear garden.   Viewing is highly recommended.

The property is midway between Vire and Flers (both a 20 minute drive) which both offer all major facilities, including daily trains to Paris, close to a small pretty village.  The small medieval town of Tinchebray with shops, bars, banks, schools, doctors’ surgeries and Vassy are about  5 minutes drive away. The ferry port at Caen Ouistreham is 1 hour’s drive, 1 1/2 hours from Dinard, Cherbourg is 1 1/2 hour’s drive and Calais is 3 1/2 hour’s drive.   It is located within easy reach of Mont St Michel, the D-day Beaches and Bayeux.
